Propeller Rat

Propeller Rat

Made by SquidGod

Staff note: The crank-operated propeller will truly test your crank skills. It's another fun game by the talented Squid God -- be sure to check out his tutorials on Youtube to learn how to make your own Playdate game!

Test Your Crank Dexterity!

Pilot a propeller-strapped rat through increasingly challenging, hazard-filled worlds with satisfyingly responsive crank-based movement!

Narrowly dodge every trap and turn, and run it back to improve your times over 80 unique levels.

It's the Year 23XX...

In the distant future, humans have set up the RODENT (Rats Operating Delicate ENgineering Tasks) Academy to repair on-board "Faster Than Light" engines that can't be fixed by robots. Recruits are trained to maneuver around the narrow engine bay through a series of agility courses set across multiple worlds.

Help our protagonist, Lil' Dipper, pass the academy and become a prestigious RODENT agent!

Featuring:

  • 80 total levels, spread across 8 different worlds!

  • Action packed levels filled with lasers, turrets, moving blocks, and more!

  • Leaderboards to compete for the fastest times in each world!

  • We think this game is appropriate for everyone.
  • This game uses the A, B, and D-Pad buttons for menu navigation, and the crank for gameplay. It requires a fair amount of precision with the crank.
